Soap w/out animal ingredients

I'm looking for bar soap that does not contain animal ingredients...specifically sodium tallowate. I was at Walmart last night and every soap I picked up had sodium tallowate in it! I'm looking for an affordable brand and something that can easily be bought instead of having to go to a special store.

Re: Soap w/out animal ingredients

  • The Walmart by me carries Burt's Bees (it's in the beauty/ makeup section, not in the soap section), that doesn't have any animal products in it. But the company was recently bought and I don't know what their current practices are. I like Kiss my Face (usually a big bar is $3) or any Castille based soap, I find these a lot, but i live in a hippy area.
  • Dr. Bronners is at many grocery stores in my area.

  • Dr. Bronner's has no animal ingredients, no animal testing (has the leaping bunny logo), is certified organic, and is fair trade.  You can't go wrong!  I have a big bottle of the liquid for refilling my hand pumps and the bar in the shower.  I get both from my regular corner grocery store.

  • Whole Foods has a less expensive version of Dr Bronners that I like. Side note: I met a Dr Bronners salesperson once and it really soured me on the whole Dr Bronners thing. He was REALLY annoying. 
  • Trader Joe's carries a Tea Tree Soap (Trader Joe's Brand) that is nice.  They also have another scent, but I cannot remember what it is.  It is a package of 2 bars for 1.69.  Not a bad price, and it is made without animal ingredients or synthetic frag.
  • My fave is Kiss My Face olive oil soap.  Three very natural ingredients.
